Nguyen Phuong Linh

Nguyen Phuong Linh was born and raised at Nha San Studio, the first alternative artist-run space for experimental art in Vietnam that was co-found by her father and based in their home.

Nha San Collective supports each other in pushing the boundaries of expression in Vietnam as well as seeks and nurtures other young artists in the community with or without a physical space.

[3] Sanctified Clouds (2012/2015) is a wall installation of a series of photographs collected from the Internet, cropping off the landscapes and violent scenes and leaving only the dust and smoke of explosions and war.

[4] In Home project (2012), Phuong Linh's father shipped her iron wood from the floor of a Catholic church and windows from a Mental hospital in the North Vietnam to Oakland.

The wood was transported same way that American Government sent the first container of weapon, medicine, food... to Vietnam in 1967 and Linh made a boat out of that.

In 2012, she found and organized Skylines With Flying People, one of the most ambitious contemporary art events in Vietnam in the last decade with local and international artists and curators from Vietnam, Japan, Germany, US, Serbia, Shanghai, Korea... at Japan Foundation, Nha San Studio, Goethe Institute, Manzi Art Space and many public sites in Hanoi.
